Damon: I know you're getting a lot of gas about Homecoming but I LOVED it. I thought it showed a tremendous subtlety and added a lot of layers . I got caught up in the day to day panic of the characters -- their focus reduced to protecting themselves against Ethan and NOT the monster or mysteries.
As for the duality thing -- people wondering if Ethan was a good guy? A good guy wouldn't threaten to KILL someone everyday til Claire was returned. Unless he's a duality himself - so focussed on his cause that he WOULD kill to get his results
(Thus raising the "do the ends justify the means" question)
I personally thought Charlie sparred everyone the agony by offing Ethan -- they would have wound up torturing or killing him any anyway.
And Charlie's backstory was bloody brilliant. Who'd a thunk that Charlie would have sunk so low?
The added insight into Jin was a great touch.
Thought I'd put my thoughts here rather than my regular email to you! Just say GREAT JOB
